I don't have much time right now, but I can proceed my search for a solution
this evening.

I'm not sure what you can see in these results:

Please note, the svnlook command doesn't do a segfault all the times. It
never works as it should, but it only does a segfault when accessing a
FSFS-repository. BDB-repository's give a different error (end of file
found), the same as I described in my opening post.

Type 'svnlook help' for usage.

I suspect there is some sort of library issue here. Can you try some of the

I've never used the trace & rtrace commands, so I'll have to do some lookup
how those commands work this evening.
What library issues can be expected? What are we looking for? A library that
doesn't exist or something?
